Where is the electricity going to come from to power these cars?

California has electricity outages every summer.

Unless we build Nuclear plants, we won’t have the energy to even power these cars.

Unfortunately, the Tesla ESS (Energy Storage System) is composed of "several thousand consumer-grade lithium-ion cells".

In other words, it's one bada$$ battery.
